+1 He brought the new car home in one piece. Baseball pays better but I think they will do fine this year.

Default Great coverage

One hour and fifteen minutes to go in the 12hr. Great coverage. 40 years ago we listened on the radio and got a report in the newspaper. Now we ride along in the cars and have coverage on the internet and on digital TV.

Default TALE OF THE TAPE

Prototypes are fast and pretty, but not very reliable.

Tale of the Tape: 11 started, 7 finished, only two on the lead lap.

3rd place: 2 laps behind leaders
4th place: 4 laps back
5th place: 29 laps back
6th place: 107 laps back
7th place: 181 laps back

Prototype Challenge: 4 started. Two laps separated 1st and 2nd.

Great race.. Best part was everyone getting distracted watching a rocket take off in the distance. Including some of the pit crews who were looking up at it - just like the announcers. Its a cool thing when you have a brutal 12 hour multi-class race into the night and everyone can still act like a kid and gawk at a rocket ship.
